Thanks coolcat. As I stated in my original post, the song isn't done yet. I'm going to be bringing in some session players here in my local area...probably someone to play the piano parts for "real" since I basically just stumble my way around on a keyboard. I also would like some steel guitar work and possibly a lead guitar or fiddle as well. I also have some background/harmony vocals in mind, though I don't intend to overdo it. The song is really just a vocal and a rhythm section at this point. Once I bring in some lead parts the mix will change drastically...I agree that there are few variances in what there is right now, but since I have so few tracks at this point I kept them all in there. Much appreciated! Anyone else?
